IXDI414PI Low-Side Gate Driver IC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The IXDI414PI is a low-side gate driver IC manufactured by IXYS, designed for driving IGBT, N-Channel, and P-Channel MOSFET devices in power management applications. This inverting gate driver operates across a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 35V and delivers peak output currents of 14A for both source and sink configurations. The device is packaged in an 8-DIP through-hole format with a 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch.

The IXDI414PI is currently classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure component availability, and support ongoing production or maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this gate driver architecture.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the IXDI414PI is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Driven Configuration: Low-Side operation only
• Channel Type: Single channel
• Number of Drivers: 1
• Gate Type Compatibility: IGBT, N-Channel, P-Channel MOSFET support
• Supply Voltage Range: 4.5V ~ 35V
• Peak Output Current: 14A source and sink capability
• Input Type: Inverting logic
• Package Format: 8-DIP through-hole with 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 150°C (TJ)

The IXDI614PI meets all substitution criteria. Both devices share identical driven configuration, channel architecture, gate type support, supply voltage specifications, output current ratings, input logic type, package format, and operating temperature range. Minor variations in logic voltage thresholds (VIH: 4.6V vs. 3V) and rise/fall time characteristics (22ns/20ns vs. 25ns/18ns) remain within acceptable engineering tolerances for gate driver applications and do not preclude functional equivalence.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The IXDI614PI is the qualified substitute for the obsolete IXDI414PI. Both devices are manufactured by IXYS and maintain identical electrical specifications across all critical gate driver parameters. The IXDI614PI holds active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing support.

The IXDI614PI carries RoHS3 compliance certification, providing environmental and regulatory advantages over the IXDI414PI. Both devices maintain REACH Unaffected status and share equivalent moisture sensitivity classifications (MSL 1, Unlimited).

Pin-for-pin compatibility is maintained through identical 8-DIP package geometry and through-hole mounting configuration. Direct substitution in existing PCB designs is supported without layout modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the IXDI614PI be used as a direct replacement for the IXDI414PI?

A: Yes. The IXDI614PI is a direct substitute. Both devices share identical driven configuration (low-side), channel type (single), gate type support (IGBT, N-Channel, P-Channel MOSFET), supply voltage range (4.5V ~ 35V), peak output current (14A source/sink), input type (inverting), package format (8-DIP, 0.300" pitch), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 150°C). Pin-for-pin compatibility is maintained.

Q: What are the differences between these two gate drivers?

A: The primary differences are product status and minor timing characteristics. The IXDI414PI is obsolete; the IXDI614PI is active. Logic voltage threshold VIH differs slightly (4.6V vs. 3V). Rise and fall times vary marginally (22ns/20ns vs. 25ns/18ns). The IXDI614PI includes RoHS3 compliance. These differences do not affect functional equivalence in gate driver applications.

Q: Are there any package or pinout differences?

A: No. Both devices use identical 8-DIP through-hole packaging with 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch. Pinout is equivalent, supporting direct PCB substitution without layout changes.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for both devices?

A: Both the IXDI414PI and IXDI614PI carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: Do both devices support the same gate types?

A: Yes. Both devices drive IGBT, N-Channel MOSFET, and P-Channel MOSFET gate inputs with identical inverting logic and 14A peak output current capability.
